Kevin , I suppose I didn't do a good job of explaining my issue. The ones shown on the radiator grille upper baffle plate are installed. I just didn't include a photo because I'm trying to locate an illustration that shows the two mounted on the hood as shown in the photo. I back tracked and found that Classic parts indicates those are required and that they contact the lock plate when the hood is closed, their kit comes with 4 thick bumpers and 6 thin bumpers. Jim Carters "Kit" also contains 4 of the "thick" bumpers along with the six thinner ones (three for each side of the hood ). I'm looking for some illustration regarding the Hood.
